didn't get welcome script

changer · 2015-11-07 16:11:35

After reading the forum a bit I realized that there is supposed to be a welcome script. I installed for the first time a couple weeks ago, but did not get that script. Typing bl-welcome into terminal does not work either.

You'll have to give us more info. How did you install BunsenLabs? If you installed it by using an image from the bunsenlabs.org website, did you use a torrent link? If not, did you do a checksum? Did you burn the ISO to a DVD or transfer it to USB? If you used a(n) USB, did you transfer it from a Windows, Mac or Linux system? Did you use unetbootin (you shouldn't)? Do you have a file present in /etc/apt/sources.list.d named bunsen.list and does it contain the following content...

deb http://pkg.bunsenlabs.org/debian bunsen-hydrogen main

Please try to answer at least some of those questions, and thanks for registering an account here!

could this be related to your first thread or is this a different install now?

changer · 2015-11-07 16:40:06

No problem.
Yes, I used bl-Hydrogen-rc1-amd64.iso.torrent to download
and bl-Hyndrogen-rc1-amd64.sha256sum.txt to verify

I dd'ed it onto a usb flash drive from Crunchbang and installed from there.

And yes, bunsen.list has the correct content.

Same installation.

What is the terminal output when you do that?

Have you checked if the script exists, and is executable?

changer · 2015-11-07 16:52:09

There is no output.
Where would I find the script?

Use the command (this should work for any executable in your $PATH)

which bl-welcome

It should be in `/usr/bin`

Ah, of course. Here it is:

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3.1K Sep 26 04:40 bl-welcome

So I tried entering the full path and it still just returns the command prompt with no output. They file has content, about 115 line script.

hhh · 2015-11-07 18:36:41

I don't know what to make of this. It hasn't been reported by anyone else and seems to make no sense.

changer · 2015-11-07 18:45:13

Yeah, it's behaving as if it's running the script and the script is just returning doing/nothing. So here's the contents in case that's helpful.

I think it requires two library paths
/usr/lib/bunsen/bunsen-common
/usr/lib/bunsen/bunsen-welcome

are both of those paths existing/installed?

looks like if they aren't the script should've returned an error

hhh · 2015-11-07 18:58:39

We'll probably have to wait for @johnraff for more input on this. It's about 4am where he is so it will be a few hours at least.

nobody0 · 2015-11-07 19:03:15

Write bl-welcome in terminal and click enter.

xaos52 · 2015-11-07 19:03:55

[[ -d /lib/live ]] && exit 0

if directory /lib/live exists, the script exits with return code 0. No message.

I don't find that directory in either my 64 bit or 32 bit partitions, but nice troubleshooting! I'm pretty sure that's in the script so that it doesn't run when you boot into a Live session.

I do have /lib/live
it contains boot/ and config/
both have a bunch of files in them.

damo · 2015-11-07 21:55:06

I think the `live` directory should have been removed when you installed BL. Try renaming it, and see if bl-welcome runs then.

so you say it is the same install.
i can't help but feel that there's some common denominator here.

changer · 2015-11-07 22:19:41

bl-welcome runs after getting rid of /lib/live

As to why it was there, I don't know.
